Have you ever gone to a movie alone... and then realized no one else is in the theater? It's like your own private screen. Except when it's a horror flick and then you're totally getting the fear.
The trick is to going on a weekday for the first showing of the day, my theater has an early bird special for $4.50 for a 9 am show, NO ONE EVER GOES , Avengers : Age of Ultron was 10x better without hearing 100 normies munch popcorn simultaneously
I did this for Paranormal Activity 4, say what you will about the franchise but when you're alone in the cinema and it's on a huge screen in front of you it's bloody scary.
Yes! Interstellar was the first movie I watched alone, also, since all of my friends had already watched it and I didn't want them to inadvertently give anything away. I'm thinking of doing the same with Jurassic World.
That's why I sit alone in front of my PC/TV and watch movies. I love the cinema, but people like to be assholes and talk or text or whatever. Fuck them. I want to enjoy the fucking movie, that's why I'm here. If you wanna talk, get the fuck out.
It was my first alone movie too! I took myself on a date for Chinese mall food and a movie (SO was at a conference) and I drank right around 40oz water before I sat down at the theater. I didn't even realize I had to pee until the credits rolled- and that's a 3hr long film. What an amazing experience, I was so involved in it. I've been going alone every once in a while since.
I saw the Incredibles, everyone else wanted to see Oceans whatever's the number was at the time. I didn't, told them I'd wait for them since mine got out earlier. I came out satisfied, they came out disappointed.
